This blog is a little effort to make biotechnology concepts simplified to all the students in the degree classes from all the universities.I took the initiative to make concise and well formulated notes supported with the diagrams.I have struggled a lot in making notes and searching for the concepts by digging library books and surfing various sites. All i want is to create one place where you can look up to biotechnology notes and rely upon them as i have put up a lot of effort on them.

Referencing a Web Page

Referencing
a web page

When referencing
something you have found on the web you need to distinguish what you are
referring to as the internet is made up
of a vast range of material from journal articles to personal and
organisational websites. Below is a list
of information you can include:

Author/Editor
or Organisation, Year the site was published or last updated, Title of work
- main title and subtitle (screen
heading/sub-heading), Online address or
location within database - full address (URL
or DOI), Date you looked at the information, the access date.

You can also include
other identifying features such as a page or screen reference, paragraph or
line number or perhaps a labelled
section or part of a table or graph.

Type of medium - for example online database, online bulletin
board.

Publisher and place of
publication - for example documents on
portable databases, which organisation has prepared the materials and where they are
located.

Name of database.

Organisational website: following is the example for referencing a website:

National Trust (2011)
Planning for the people. Available at: http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main/w-chl/wcountryside_environment/w-planning-landing.htm
(Accessed: 20 September 2011).

About Me

Myself a researcher interested in the field of genomics and biotechnology. Apart from following my dreams i also like to engage myself in helping other newbies in the field of life sciences. This blog is just a beginning to help budding scientists; who can get full fledged notes on biotech concepts. i have tried to make concise, thoroughly explained and supported with diagrams wherever necessary.This blog helps you avoid surfing websites for the conceptual notes. I am open to the suggestions and improvements!!! Good luck and Happy learning!!!
